“Bring it.”

“…”

At the words of her grandfather, who sat at the table, all her family put down the dishes at once except for Lopez and Annie.

The two chewed the salad with a face saying, ‘here we go again.’ In particular, Annie was quite tired. This is also why she declared non-marriage.

She was afraid this annoying thing would keep repeating itself.

“It’s not normal for you to meet up at that late hour. Even if you take the day slowly, bring him in and say hello first.”

“We’re not in that kind of relationship. He just helped me.”

“Which family is he from?”

“He’s someone you don’t need to know about, Grandfather.”

‘Even if I tell the truth, it will only cause an uproar.’

Annie, hiding her innermost thought, passed the salad down her throat. She somehow got choked in her throat and drank her juice.

“Cough!”

Tak-

The old man put down his spoon loudly, but Annie didn’t bat an eyelid.

“Before I die, I must see my one and only granddaughter getting married!”

“There is an order to come, but there is no order to go. I want my grandfather to live a longer and healthy life than me.”

“You say that now…!”

The old man’s eyes moved.

He was the father of Lopez, who casually ate soup.

“How did you educate your children that they are like this! Tsk tsk. Anyway, I don’t like it, everything about it.”

“Father. You’re going to upset my husband.”

Lopez said, holding her husband’s white-washed hand tightly.

“Honey, I need to make some medicine for my father. Annie, her declaration of non-marriage was not long ago, but he forgot…”

“This-this! No manners!”

Despite the old man’s scolding, Lopez didn’t even pretend to listen. She calmed her nervous husband and smiled gracefully.

And yet, she didn’t forget to scratch the insides.

“I’m going to go order some medicine tomorrow. Alright?”

“Kek!”

David burst into laughter and then bit his mouth after being stared at by the adults.

Cough cough, David opened his mouth, coughing.

“Annie.”

“Yes, Brother.”

Although they were close siblings, she had to keep his title in front of adults. As Annie docilely answered, David spoke in a solemn voice.

“You should apologize for causing trouble to the adults, and you should go upstairs and reflect on it.”

“Yes, sorry. Sorry for bothering you. I will go upstairs and reflect on myself.”

“Keep a low profile for a while.”

“I’ll keep that in mind.”

Go and take a nap.

Thank you, Brother.

After exchanging gazes, Annie hurriedly left the dining room.

Behind her was Carla, who bowed her head and suppressed her laughter.

“Hey, Ejed.”

“Get out. I am in the middle of business.”

“Sheesh. You’re mean.”

Robby grumbles and does not leave the office. He glanced at Ejed, playfully twisting his long silver hair with his fingers.

Ejed, who guards the office desk, has grown much bigger than his memory. Unlike himself, who has been living like this for decades.

Now, only the pupils behind the gold glasses that his father used to wear have become smaller.

After affixing a seal on the papers for a while, Ejed turned his attention to him. Robby leaned against the wall and stared at him with his arms crossed.

Ejed asked again, looking down at the paperwork.

“Do you have something to say?”

“Just. I’m here to see your face.”

“…”

“By the way, you look busy these days. You go out often.”

Robby, who was murmuring, stopped his words.

Even then, Ejed diligently reviewed the documents instead of refuting them.

“Do you have a woman?”

“…”

At that moment, his fingers holding the papers twitched slightly. Ejed reviewed the paperwork instead of replying, but he couldn’t fool Robby’s eyes.

At the subtle difference, Robby bit the soft flesh in his mouth.

‘What Fizz guy said is true.’

But he had no outward expression. Robby walked towards the door, whistling as usual.

“I’m going out. Do your best.”

Kiik.

As he closed the door, Fizz’s eyes lit up.

Robby’s expression wrinkled in displeasure.

“What is that, such a bother.”

“Robby, Robby, how did it go?”

“What is going on?”

“Did she say something about Lady Dsev?”

The only person who dared to deal with the emperor comfortably was Robby. He was a close friend of the emperor, and now he had raised him like a son.

However, contrary to expectations, Robby was very gloomy.

“Why do I have to say that with my mouth?”

Robby, who responded harshly, turned around and headed somewhere.

Fizz didn’t mind; he clung to his side and talked about this and that.

“Lady Dsev. As I said before, it is out of the ordinary. Her eyes are poisonous; she has a strong personality, and uh-huh. She’s not a poisonous snake. She’s…”

“Right. So she must have been clinging to the tyrant.”

“Then shouldn’t you be stopping it?”

“Hmph.”

Robby snorted and stopped walking.

He said, looking up at Fizz, a little taller than himself.

“Do you know what he hates to hear the most in the world?”

“What?”

‘After all, this bastard is dumber than Doher’

While he was tongue-tied inside, Robby continued.

“It’s an order, order. If I forced him to break up, break up. Even if I say it for a hundred days, he will stick closer, and it will never come off. And then, what are you going to do if there’s a baby out of the blue?”

“Don’t, don’t tell me! How could His Majesty…”

“What’s wrong with that? Because this is the world that I know very well. Something like that could happen.”

“Then, then what are you going to do?”

Instead of answering, Robby moved on to his steps.

It was towards the castle with a majestic, shiny wooden sign.
